British government must do more to control companies
Campaign group Global Witness will today present oral evidence to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Business and Human Rights in a last minute addition to the hearing schedules.
To complement Global Witness' written submission and the earlier testimonies of NGOs on 9 June 2009, Gavin Hayman, Director of Campaigns, and Seema Joshi, Legal Advisor, will focus on the UK Government's role in preventing abuses by UK based companies operating in conflict affected areas.
